Here's a find I got on the 29th of April

I found it in the same area that I found my big coppers. The first photo is after a short electrolysis dunk and the second photo is after I'm finished with it plus a baked on coating of vegetable oil. I could have done more electrolysis but I was done with it. I did find the Kennedy on my way to where the spot I found the plaque at is.
